Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Farmoor. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you are in Farmoor and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Common problems we fix in Farmoor

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A crack across the base
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common questions in Farmoor

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
